Sports mode is a good option. I'd also practice prefocusing and panning with the action. Prefocusing is where you push down half way on the shutter to engage the auto focus. As your child moves, refocus. Doing these two things can lessen any shutter lag by as much as 80%.
There's also the S3's two continuous modes. High-speed: approx. 2.3 fps and Normal: approx. 1.5 fps.
